0.1708 euro per kW.
12.8 euro standing charge.
But as all know here, there's tva then some more tax on top.
Then being poor pensioners we got 240 euros from the gov this year which we always get sent to EDF.

Is that another 10 % on top of the 10% increase on our last bill?

As far as I know, and there'll be more to come as a result of consumer prices being held down artificially. Part of this is also the result of the idiotic decision to reduce clean and cheap nuclear power by successive govts under pressure from the loony left and the lack of infrastructure maintenance by, e.g., EDF, more concerned with throwing customer money at the works council.
Rant over.

That sounds very high. I’m very luckily on a 2 year fixed rate which ends in September, so there’ll be a big jump then.

The current unit rate is 19.11p/kWh and the standing charge is 22.96p per day (£83.80 per year)
